Apple Oatmeal Cookies image

I found this recipe on a search for lemon zest recipes (I had just gotten my Microplane Zester and had fallen in love with it and was zesting lemons and oranges all over the place). The lemon zest doesn't have a starring role in these cookies, but they are pretty yummy, very apple pie-ish.

Time 37m

Yield 48 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 1/2 cups flour
1 cup quick oats (not instant)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves (I leave this out)
2 teaspoons grated lemons, zest of (from 1 medium lemon)
1 cup packed dark brown sugar
3/4 cup salted butter
1 large egg
1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
1/2 cup honey
1 medium apple, peeled,cored and finely chopped (about 1 cup)
1 cup raisins (about 6 ounces)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
  • In a bowl, combine the flour, oats, salt, baking soda, cinnamon, cloves and lemon zest.
  • Mix well with a wire whisk and then set it aside.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together in a large bowl with an electric mixer.
  • Add the egg, applesauce and honey, and beat at medium speed until smooth.
  • Add the flour mixture, fresh apple and raisings.
  • Blend at a low speed until just combined.
  • Don't overmix it, and don't worry, it's supposed to be a soft dough.
  • Drop the dough by rounded tablespoons on to ungreased cookie sheets (I like to cover the sheets in parchment paper).
  • The cookies should be spaced about 1 ½ inches apart.
  • Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until the bottoms are golden.

Overall, I thought these cookies were pretty good. They're not the best oatmeal cookies I've ever had, but they're definitely worth trying.

These cookies are way too sweet for me. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

I followed the recipe exactly and my cookies turned out dry and crumbly. I'm not sure what went wrong.

These cookies are a little bland for my taste. I think they could use some more spices or vanilla extract.

I've tried many oatmeal cookie recipes, but this one is by far the best. The cookies are perfectly crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside. I also love the fact that they're not too sweet.

These oatmeal cookies were a hit with my family! They're soft, chewy, and full of flavor. I especially love the addition of apples, which give them a nice sweetness and crunch. I'll definitely be making these again soon.
